Yes, the toe area is a little clunky looking, but they are safety shoes and that is expected. Not sure what to do, bought this in February, delivered end of February. Bring this BAD BOY to your next Party, I guarantee your friends will be impressed. All the features they were boasting didnt match up to the $15 price at the time. The bottom is a rigid foam type material which is good at absorbing shocks. I suggest going down a size. I cant speak for using it with itunes or windows media player but if you get a my cloud for about 150 it will certainly make it simple. I do not yet have the product in service. The contents of little boxes inside that hold pegs, dowels and screws were open and these little items were spread and mixed with the boards. So to sum it up, not only don?t the slippers keep your feet warm, but the cushioned comfort is non-existent.
